    Depends on how the ACC and B16 commish's play their hands..........right now they have the upper hand in BB. The SEC and B1G can be elitists in FB at he risk of shooting themselves in the foot for BB. We all know that FB revenue is king but BB is still very relevant.....

    The buyout was pre round 2 expansion.......it covered the 1/2 shares to the 4 new teams for 2 years without the remaining 8 taking less money for 2 years until the new contract kicks in. The buyout plus 2 less teams kept the 8 remaining payout whole. It it not clear if ESPN/Fox have agreed to any pro rata $$ for 2024. It is being projected that with full pro rata starting in 2025 that the full B12 distribution to all 16 teams to be between $45-$50M/per team

    Sure if the media partners agree it will work. The B12 unanimously voted the new PAC12 members full shares because it was in the best interest of the conference to kill off the PAC. When the 4 G5's agreed to 2 years of 1/2 shares and then full shares thereafter they didn't have anywhere close to the same leverage as there was a good chance that this might have been the last G5 to P5 life boat. There was no B12 added media dollars for the first 2 years as they did not have a pro rata clause. The reason the deal worked without eroding the current members payout for the first two years was because the buyout money provided enough money to pay the new members without the existing members having to give up anything

    Not the same situation. The B12 lost 2 teams with a windfall $100M buyout, so the net was still positive to the existing teams without a dime of added media $$. Without an uptick in AAC per team media dollars it doesn't work..............not likely anyone would be willing to double the media payout for a G5 to G5 jump. It gets even more complicated because the MWC is under Fox and CBS and the AAC is ESPN
  5. JAFFX2
    To your point MWC teams get paid a little more than 1/2 what AAC teams get paid.........adding those teams to the AAC would erode the media deal unless someone is willing to pay those teams double what they are currently being paid.........doesn't add up

    P5 status requires approval from the remaining P4 and that has a snowballs chance in hell..........

    FYI.........Apple TV+ is NOT required at all to access MLS Season Pass. MLS Season Pass is a completely separate subscription and available as a standalone product..........It would be assumed that CFB will work the same way
  13. JAFFX2
    Apple already crapped on a PAC shared media deal...could that change? Perhaps. I also have serious reservations about $15M, the reality is it might be closer to $10M..........

    I am not sure what is worse............The AAC exit fee, the crazy travel costs, or the streaming only with no network TV exposure
  15. JAFFX2
    Holy crap, he is the PAC expansion consultant! That would be a major kick in the ass..........
  16. JAFFX2
    If this 4 PAC/AAC deal really has legs is it a good thing? The UCF, Cinci, Houston exits fees were settled at $18M, the added travel is gonna cost a **** pot of money, and at best the streaming only deal provides no network TV exposure and at best is projected to pay $15M. How does this make any sense????

    $10M a year sucks and is not worth it.............

    precisely what he meant by "Wait until ‘25 for MWC teams"

    the problem is that no matter how much anyone thinks this a Power 5 conference, the only ones that matter are those doing the approving...........
  21. JAFFX2
    given the crazy **** we have seen unfold recently, I wouldn't be the least surprised to see FSU and Clemson to the SEC, UNC and UVA to the B1G and then the XII grabs 2 of the best of the rest.........
  22. JAFFX2
    I would agree with you if it were only FSU and Clemson who want to leave for more $$$........Don't overlook the fact that it has been widely reported that the Magnificent 7 have been working behind the scenes to get out of the GoR and leave the ACC
  23. JAFFX2
    The B1G, SEC and XII are ultimately striving for 20+ teams. If the ACC implodes don't kid yourself because the XII would pick up Pitt, Louisville, NC State and GT in a heartbeat
  24. JAFFX2
    With regards to bullet number 2.........the remaining power conferences have a not so subtle strategy to consolidate. The likelihood that those conferences vote to approve a new merged autonomous conference into existence is basically slim to none...........If and when the ACC folds there will be a P3.........best scenario is for the ACC to survive
